So recently I have been having problems with Minecraft Multiplayer regarding a lot of weird lag, for example characters take way longer to move, map takes a lot of time to load, and when I type on chat it doesn't even show up what I typed on the chat.

This also only happens when I play multiplayer, I have no problems like this on single-player nor other games other than Minecraft, I have a good internet connection and my computer shouldn't have any problems running this game since it's kind of new.

I already tried different methods such as re-installing/downloading the game, getting a client to help me run the game faster, formatting my computer and none of these have been successful in getting rid of the lag.

Also it doesn't just happen in one server, it happens in every server and I've been wanting to play Minecraft multiplayer for quite a while now but this lag won't let me play it (I can't even open a door without it lagging like crazy on multiplayer)

Other information: I have seen a similar problem to mine in this following post but it doesn't seem to have any answers yet nor does it seem the person has that problem anymore?

Here's the topic: http://www.minecraft...on-multiplayer/

Here are my specs:

Operating System: Windows 8.1 64-bit
Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-2600k CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.7GHz
RAM: 16 GB of RAM
Video Card: AMD Radeon R9 Series 280X

Anybody know a way to get rid of this lag or is having the same problems as me?

It's most probably your connection, really. Attempt to restart your router/modem, be sure to wait 15 seconds or so before turning it on again.

I don't really think it's my connection because I can run Team Fortress 2 and other games (Garry's Mod, Left 4 Dead 2, Counter Strike Global Offensive, Terraria, etc.) with good ping but I'll try that anyway and see if it works.

EDIT: Nope, it didn't work

Alright so it's definitely not my connection, I tested it on another computer and it ran smoothly with no lag at all so it has something to do with my computer, anyone know what it could be?

EDIT: Also, Java is updated to the latest version.

Also I have an unmodified version of Minecraft and I don't have any texture packs.

I posted my own thread on a similar issue like this, but I am also experiencing the exact same type of lag as mentioned and I have no idea where it came from. I have never had this before and started happening a couple days ago, roughly as soon as or after the 1.7.10 update came out, (though I doubt that the update is the issue) and it's really a pain to play on multiplayer servers :\ I hope there is a fix for this.
